All multi-actor projects have the following sentence in the description of the topic:
"Proposals should fall under the concept of multi-actor approach"
and refer to footnote 1 on p.4 of the work programme thatdescribes the multi-actor approach as follows…

This presentation shall neither be binding nor construed as
constituting commitment by the European Commission.
• "multi-actor" is more than a strong dissemination requirement or what a broad stakeholders' board can deliver
• "all along the project" *: a clear role for the different actors in the work plan, from the participation in the planning of work and experiments, their execution up until the dissemination of results and the possible demonstration phase.
• Project proposals should illustrate sufficient quantity and quality of knowledge exchange activities
This should generate innovative solutions that are more likely to be applied thanks to the cross-fertilisation of ideas between actors, the co-creation and the generation of co-ownership for eventual results.

This presentation shall neither be binding nor construed as
constituting commitment by the European Commission.
A multi-actor project needs to take into account:
• how the project proposal's objectives and planning are targeted to needs / problems and opportunities of end-users
• the composition of the project consortium must get sufficient involvement of key actors with complementary types of knowledge (scientific and practical) to reach the project objectives and make its results broadly implemented.
Facilitation between actors and openness to involve additional actors/group of actors in the project, for instance relevant groups operating in EIP context, are strongly recommended.

Thematic networks
Main aim:
• Synthesise, share and present best practices and research
results focusing on themes and issues that are near to
be put into practice
• Produce material for practitioners
5 networks in the range of 2 mio Euro on specific themes to be proposed bottom-up
ISIB 2 -2015: Closing the research and innovation divide: the crucial role of innovation support services and knowledge exchange“:
This presentation shall neither be binding nor construed as
constituting commitment by the European Commission.
• Thematic networks follow the multi-actor approach for greater
user acceptance and focus on application potential
• Projects involving a wide range of actors as relevant for
the specific themes:
• researchers,
• advisors, innovation support services,
• farmers/farmers' groups,
• also e.g. enterprises, education, NGOs, administration,
regulatory bodies,…
• NO pure research networks: include practical/tacit "non-
formalised" knowledge from practitioners, user groups, farmers
etc and deploy a vast reservoir of knowledge
Thematic networks in Horizon 2020Work programme 2014-2015
This presentation shall neither be binding nor construed as
constituting commitment by the European Commission.
• Themes could be linked to:
• products or sectors (e.g. arable crops, fruits, vegetables,
pig,…etc)
• or a broad range of cross-cutting subjects (e.g. crop
rotation, certain farming practices, energy, implementation
approaches of a directive, eco-system services, social services,
bio-based products, short supply chains,…etc)
• For the purpose of organisation, possible sub-networks may have
a more limited focus, e.g. the local/regional/national level or for a
specific crop/product/farming

Some lessons learnt from calls 2014
• A new concept already successfully taken up in many proposals
• MA approach supports stronger dissemination efforts, but NOT ONLY
that
• Various approaches for integrating actors:
• As a partner in the consortium: most appreciated by the
evaluating experts, as they can see the operational capacity
of the actor (short CV)
• As a sub-contractor (actor is less sure to be involved due to
call for tender processes)
• Other approaches: research partners explaining they have
an existing network, letters of intent, etc
Multi-actor projects in the 2014 call – first experiences
So, a "multi-actor" project would explain
• why the chosen objectives outlined in the proposal are indeed
relevant for end-users (under "sound concept" - Excellence),
• how the research proposal will take into account
tacit/practical/organisational knowledge,
• how "sufficient quantity and quality of knowledge
exchange activities" will be tackled and demonstrated in the
proposed concept,
• how it is planned to make the results better implemented by
getting actors of type XYZ taking part in the activities as
from the start of the project ( certain type of enterprises,
advisors, farmers/farmers' groups), etc
Multi-actor projects in the 2014 call – first experiences
1. Note the difference between multi-disciplinarity (combining
various scientific disciplines) and multi-actor approach
(footnote refers to involving actors "all along the project" & to
project objectives targeted to needs/opportunities of practice;
end-user orientation)
2. Trans-disciplinary, multi-sector, etc is not multi-actor
3. Improve the state of the art section to indicate better how the
project will be going beyond e.g. former projects: demonstrate
you know existing research work and best practices, and what
would be the added value of this project (which are the key
problems to tackle)
Multi-actor projects in the 2014 call – some points of attention for consortia
4. Even if not obligatory, having non-research actors as
participants in the consortium would show CV, role, budget,
signature
5. Integrating non-research partners may result in more partners
than usual
6. Therefore structured coordination efforts will need to be
demonstrated: evidence (quantifiable if possible) of how
knowledge exchange will be organized, e.g. matrix structure
including meetings between various actors within a MS +
meetings for a specific type of actors across MS
